Call me crazy for even thinking it, but has anyone ever used or have been in a car with an interior made of elk hide

How do you think it may look or last?

never seen it but there's always a first time for everything.

I know deer hide is very soft when done right.

Those who have worn elk hide work gloves would know how soft it is

the store was all out of elephant, was it? Just kidding. It's a neat idea and I imagine it would hold up.....but I have no upholstery experience.

Hope it turns out well
